I've had the same problem with the IR myself. Not sure having more slots would do much except
let me stash a few guys there. The minute a good player goes on the IR, I'd stash him there so I could
use him later in the season. I'd keep building my team that way.

Junior's in a different league. Can you push him down the stairs? Pull his groin?

Actually, Junior is away at college so I can't push him down the stairs. The best I could do is send him a text message and tell him that we converted his bedroom into an exercise room. Perhaps that will stress him out and cause him to make illogical moves with his fantasy hockey team.

I probably shouldn't ask, but what IS the reason. Other than that you must have something on Roscoe.

It's funny. I think I spent less than two hours getting prepared for this draft. I only juggled a couple of things. That was moving up a couple of goalies. I. Got the 4th pick so the guys it wanted went top 3. So I did a one two with Lundqvist and Jimmy Howard . They both are terrible and I've got the worst goaltending in the league. But my other guys are holding their own even though I neglected them in the draft. So average there.

I rarely check my stats and even forgot to take DL guys to the bench. I've made a couple of moves mostly moving around one defensive spot. I hate going to our league page. Basically, I've never cared about this team and have treated the team like a red headed step child. I've never ever done anything like this with my teams in any fantasy hockey league. I just don't care and I don't know why. The last couple of days I try to motivate myself to do things. So I have.

The amazing thing is my team is in bloody fifth-place out of 8!!!!! Right in the middle of things and would be in a playoff position if they were held today. What a waste of a spot. I feel like I should be in last place. I know a couple people under me have made lots of moves so they must be having bad luck. So it is not like people below me care any less than I do. Maybe I will start trying soon. But I just don't have the stomach for it. I can't understand it.

My best player is a guy I picked up as a free agent before the season even began. But he got injured I guess. This whole thing starting with the goalies being terrible does not make any sense.

There's a few of us who shift guys around aimlessly just to show our interest.

I'd be having fun if my team would play better. Every time I set my lineup on Sunday, I find out
on Monday that key players are injured. Too late to adjust. Actually, the league is quite close except
for Junior at the top and Beer at the bottom. I hope he doesn't hurt the kid. And leave his
bedroom alone!!
